Update on the Craigslist “spectacularly beautiful” posting

Last week I wrote about a Craigslist posting in which a young woman from New York City was looking for a rich man. She sold herself as “spectacularly beautiful.” So he’d get the arm candy, she’d share his bank account. The post was sad and pathetic, but the desire a reality. Who hasn’t seen or heard of these kinds of coupling?

The New York Times’ Andrew Adam Newman tried tracking down the poster, and the man from JPMorgan who responded.

Newman’s piece suggests it’s a legitimate posting, although his story says the response was not written by the JPMorgan Chase employee, but rather forwarded around by him so his signature ended up at the bottom.
